How to Deal with Working Off the Clock

Non-Exempt Issues

Could off-the-clock work by your non-exempt employees be a disaster looking for a place to happen in your organization?

Once in awhile we’ll ask an employee, “How are you paid?”  Often they’ll reply they’re salaried. Then we ask a second question, “What happens when you work more than 40 hours a week?”  The typical response is “Nothing.”

The Wage and Hour Division has made off-the-clock work a priority and has significantly increased their staffing to investigate off-the-clock cases.

How might an employer get into trouble?

  • Employees misclassified as exempt employees when they’re actually nonexempt employees.
  • Unclear policies regarding overtime work of nonexempt employees.
  • Inadequate supervision.
  • Allowing employees to begin work prior to clocking in.
  • Allowing employees to work after clocking out.
  • Calling nonexempt employees on the phone during non work hours.

Some suggestions…

  • Make sure your employees are correctly classified exempt and nonexempt.
  • Upgrade your policies on overtime and off the clock working.
  • Train or communicate about these policies.
  • Enforce them.

executive advantage is an expert resource in helping organizations comply with wage and hour concerns. Don’t let off the clock work activity become a disaster for your organization.
